Animating non-human objects by human motion capture data is a problem that has not been investigated yet, but the solution is surely interesting if we take a look at the "The Beauty and Beast Movie". The real problem is we animate the skeleton mesh, but it is not trivial to see a skeleton in such objects, and more to that my aim is to let the computer to decide on skeleton. Even if we fit a skeleton animating it by a human motion capture data is not trivial. Since the data is for a human skeleton, directly animating the newly formed skeleton could cause problems. I propose a solution to fit a skeleton automatically and to animate it with via human motion capture data.
